Start the day with staffing email follow-ups in view
Have Notis gather the staffing conversations that need attention before the day gets busy.
Trigger
Recurring schedule
Notis starts this workflow on a schedule, such as daily, weekly, or during business hours.
Action
Fetch emails
Fetches a list of email messages from a gmail account, supporting filtering, pagination, and optional full content retrieval.
Why this helps
Staffing decisions can be scattered across email and take too long to reconstruct each morning.
- Creates a predictable starting point for staffing follow-up
- Highlights messages that appear to need a response
- Reduces repeated inbox searches
Setup
Build it in a few focused steps.
- 1Connect 7shifts and Gmail once in the Notis portal.
- 2Create an automation in Automations, New Automation, and name it for the daily staffing scan.
- 3Tell Notis to search Gmail for recent staffing conversations related to 7shifts and summarize unresolved follow-ups, noting that Gmail is the source for those messages.
- 4Pick a recurring schedule and choose where run reports should go.
- 5Test with one real example of a staffing email and check the summary.
Questions about this workflow
Does this read the 7shifts schedule?
No. The action searches Gmail. Include schedule context in your instruction or request if the summary needs it.
Can the scan identify every unresolved request?
It can surface likely open follow-ups from accessible messages, but a message may not state whether someone responded elsewhere.
